Muay Lao

description Muay Lao Overview

Muay Lao is a Lao ring combat sport based on striking with the hands, feet, elbows, and knees. Competitors fight under rules that permit several ranges of attack rather than limiting the contest to punches or kicks, placing the sport within the broader mainland Southeast Asian martial-arts tradition. Muay Lao was included in the combat-sport program at the 2009 Southeast Asian Games, held in Vientiane, Laos.
